escorted through the streets In carriages this
morning. With many beautiful residences,
and with signs Of the enormous commerce
which centres here. observable on every hand.
there were everywhere evidences Of imma-

and building operations seemed almost every

residences We have built" the people said, 80
much as OF the business we have started,

The ride was well-manaRed and thoroughly

President laid the corner stone. This cere-
